Scalability in Open5Gs #5

Open kirankumar-Athirala opened 2 weeks ago

kirankumar-Athirala commented 2 weeks ago

Hi @DiogoCruz40

Firstly, I apologize for bringing up an issue that is not directly related to this repository. I noticed that you previously inquired about scaling functionality in the Open5GS discussions, so I thought it appropriate to discuss this here.

I am planning to deploy the Open5G core in my standalone Kubernetes environment and seek clarification on scaling AMF and SMF functionalities.

Specifically, if I manually scale the AMF functionality, will the newly launched AMF container be able to seamlessly connect to the Open5G core and operate with the existing configuration without any manual intervention? Additionally, will both the original and new AMF instances correctly receive user registrations?

If this is possible, could you please explain the process to achieve this so I can implement it accordingly? If it is not feasible, I would appreciate any guidance or modifications required to achieve this functionality.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards, kirankumar athirala

Hello @kirankumar-Athirala,

Unfortunately, scalability functionality is not yet implemented in the gradiant Helm charts. You can raise a request to check for any updates regarding when this functionality will be implemented by the community contributors. If you check the gradiant community issues, I raised the same question to them, and they mentioned that it is not a priority to implement this functionality yet. Another thing to keep in mind is that Open5GS is single-core limited, which is not optimal for performance.
